Universities offer huge potential to support businesses – from providing expert advice to developing joint projects; from offering interns to developing joint applications for specialist support funding. City has a long and successful history of supporting businesses of all sizes, and our ambition is to grow the support we offer.
Join us at this free event to hear how business can collaborate with City, University of London’s School of Science and Technology through a day of talks, discussion, and networking.
At the event we will be presenting case studies of our recent successes and offer you the opportunity to meet with world class experts and support professionals.
Whether you are a recent start-up or established company, we’re here to help.
